First human case of Shamonda virus detected in France, officials say
Le autorità francesi hanno confermato il primo caso umano del virus Shamonda in un paziente immunodepresso morto all’inizio di ottobre in un ospedale di Lione. Il contagio sarebbe avvenuto tramite la puntura di un moscerino nel Francia orientale, dove il virus circolava tra gli animali in primavera e estate. Il virus, un orthobunyavirus trasmesso da insetti e finora considerato non trasmissibile all’uomo, colpisce principalmente i bovini con febbre, diarrea e calo della produzione di latte. Il Centro europeo per la prevenzione e il controllo delle malattie (ECDC) sta indagando con le autorità francesi ed europee, mentre viene escluso un rischio per la popolazione.
